I do this EVERY time I do anything (even go to the bathroom). I constantly talk to Bailey. The more I talk (teach him) there more he understands. People dumb animals down and I can't stand that! I also give Bailey a hug and kiss every time I leave him.

If you say good bye and reassure it the animal will be at peace while you are gone. I know sometimes Gracie might not see me leaving and wonder where I am after I am gone. Now I try to take a minute to tell her I have to go for a little while and tell her good bye. She seems to accept the fact that I'm leaving her better when I talk to her first.
I can't stand to think of losing her. |
